The Immutable Laws of Nature
The first step to achieving a free and fulfilled life is to understand that all of life is governed by law. This includes Nature, Music, Art and all of the Sciences. Gravity is just such a law. It never changes, and it affects us whether we agree it exists or not. To live in harmony with the Laws of Nature produces vibrant health, engaging relationships, abundant joy, clarity of thought, unparalleled judgment and a fulfilled life. To violate them produces strife, stress and destruction.
These Laws of Nature are in operation, whether we are aware of them and understand them, or not. And the laws do not ‘change with the times’ like everything else seems to. The Laws of Nature today are the same Laws of Nature that applied thousands of years ago. They are unchangeable or immutable.
Very few of us fully understand the Law of Gravity, and we seldom concern ourselves over it. But it continues working, ensuring a comfortable living environment here on earth. So it is with all the Laws of Nature – unseen yet ever present.
You may already be living a fulfilled life because you understand and abide by these Laws, or you may be trapped in an unfulfilling life because you follow a different set of man-made laws.
Now here's a challenging question...
What Are the Laws of Nature?
Have your parents ever explained them? Did you learn them at school? Does your religion ever mention the Immutable Laws of Nature? In fact, have you ever heard of this term before?
No?
Can you see that maybe, just maybe, important aspects of life have been purposely withheld from us?
It is undeniable that much unnecessary unhappiness exists today because of ignorance of the Immutable Laws of Nature. Knowledge, understanding and application of these laws lifts our life out of the mediocre and places it on a heavenly plane. It is the flowers rather than the weeds, the banquet rather than the crumbs.
So it would make sense then to discover what these Laws of Nature are, so that we can start following them, and in so doing automatically live a more fulfilling life. Two-and-a-half millennia ago, Sophocles in his Antigone was the first to recognize the supremacy of Universal Natural Law. Concepts of natural law, rights, and justice subsequently evolved through Socrates, Aristotle, Cicero, Cato, Seneca, the Magna Carta, Aquinas, Sidney, Locke, Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill -- even Baruch Spinoza with his Universal Man and Immanuel Kant with his Universal Laws. And, finally, Thomas Jefferson climaxed natural law in his Declaration of Independence by recognizing the unalienable rights of each individual to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
In 51 B.C. Cicero defined Natural Law in On the Republic:
[i]“True law is right reason in agreement with nature, universal, consistent, everlasting, whose nature is to advocate duty by prescription and to deter wrongdoing by prohibition. Good men obey its prescriptions and prohibitions, but evil men disobey them.
It is forbidden by God to alter this law, nor is it permissible to repeal any part of it, and it is impossible to abolish the whole of it. Neither the Senate nor the People can absolve us from obeying this law and we do not need to look outside ourselves for an expounder or interpreter of this law.
There will not be one law at Rome and another law at Athens. There is now and will be forever one law, valid for all peoples and all times. And there will be one master and ruler for all of us in common, God, who is the author of this law, its promulgator, and enforcing judge.
Whoever does not obey this law is trying to escape himself and to deny his nature as a human being. By this very fact, he will suffer the greatest penalties, even if he should somehow escape conventional punishments.”
The Immutable Laws of Nature have been known since almost the beginning of time, and yet we are no longer taught the importance of these laws.
We will be covering 15 of the most important and relevant to leading a fulfilled life. Following is simply an introduction to the Laws of Nature we will discuss in subsequent chapters.
Relationships
We begin with relationships, since this provides the basic meaning to, and the purpose of life: developing fulfilling relationships. The Laws of Relationships are based on:
• Dating: the Law of Attraction - Use this Law to find your ideal partner and avoid falling for the wrong ones.
• Mating: the Law of Expectations, or what men and women each want out of a fulfilling relationship.
• Ever-Aftering: the Law of Fidelity between a woman and a man that leads to long-term fulfillment, and how to ensure that your relationship becomes a life long love affair, in which neither partner feels the need to look elsewhere to have their needs fulfilled.
Health & Longevity
Unless you are leading a healthy life, free of dependence on manufactured drugs of any form, your own body will be holding you back from achieving all you can. The Laws of Ultimate Health & Longevity are based on:
• Taking Responsibility for one’s own health; not becoming dependant on anyone else, including the medical establishment. This requires effort. The first step in taking responsibility is to understand the forces against you:
Media; Government; Environment; Health Establishment; Traditions.
• Natural Lifespan: Both Science and the Good Book indicate that a normal life-span is 120 years. False information is being used to promulgate the idea that it is only 70 to 80; and that a loss of faculties is inevitable. By changing simple life patterns, achieving a healthy life to 120 and even beyond is not only possible, but how the human body was originally designed.
Independent Wealth Creation
Without an independent means of creating wealth, you will forever be a slave to a salaried position. The Laws of Financial Independence & Wealth Creation are based on:
• Materialization: This is a fundamental law of the Universe: what the mind of man can conceive, it can bring about. The mind is the workshop in which everything is initially created.
• Persistence: Without persistence, very little is ever achieved. With it, anything can be accomplished. Understanding and harnessing it can lead to the achievement of any goal. A plan without persistence is no plan at all.
• Actualization: The ultimate reason and purpose for a successful life is to attain transcendent self-actualization. We refer to this as attaining The Omega Point. (More about this later.) Selfactualization is to find self-fulfillment and realize one’s full potential. The reason this is included under Wealth Creation has to do with the difference between Value Extraction and Value Creation, which we will cover in a subsequent chapter.
• Leverage: This law is the principle of taking all of your assets (your time being the most valuable) and making them work for you. Until we can leverage our time, we will never become wealthy and powerful, and we will never free our time to do the things we enjoy.
Personal Freedom & Independence
Unless we are able to lead a life free of interference from those who want to limit our life, we will never be able to achieve a truly fulfilling life. The Laws of Personal Freedom & Independence are based on:
• Privacy: The ongoing erosion of privacy in the World is the most important issue facing individuals today. Without privacy, we have nothing, or less than nothing. Privacy is a human imperative because privacy of self is an important biological necessity of a
sane and stable sense of self. It is a scientific fact that a rational person cannot have their autonomous sense of self compromised and still function as a healthy individual.
• Independence: Only by having wealth sufficient to free oneself from the shackles of a salaried position, and which you alone control and are aware of, can one achieve a truly fulfilled life. We will provide a mechanism for creating a leveraged, passive income.
• Sovereignty: This is the end ideal to be achieved. A king or queen is not only independent, but also leads their people. In fact they serve their people. This is the epitome of success, self-actualization and reaching the Omega Point. (We will explain all of this.)
Metaphysical Truths
This may sound a little complex right now, but as you progress through this material all will become clear. Remember that this is simply an introduction. The Laws of Metaphysical Truths are based on:
• Creation: The Universe and the mind of man were brought into existence out of nothing - or out of something which is currently beyond the ability of our mind to comprehend - by an Initiator outside of this world system. Once we understand this, our
response is usually and almost inevitably, one of awe – not one of rebellion.
• 2 Forces: Positive and Negative. The positive force is naturally good, and the negative force is naturally evil. The opposing forces were introduced for our personal training. It is how we react to these forces which determine the effectiveness of the training.
These then are the basic Laws of Nature we will be covering in the next few chapters. Do not concern yourself about understanding them all now - this was purely an introduction, and we will be going into far more explanation soon.
